(help) kali linux on galaxy s5 sm-g900f
- Thread starter fray37310
- Start date
i've already tried but nothing , maybe can you send me a pvt message with a little guide for the installation?? p.s. i have a sdcard of 8 gb
I tried Linux on Android but it gives invalid argument mounting the loop device. Linux Deploy has an option to not use a loop device and install to a folder I think. Not positive. Try Advanced Linux Installer. That might work. It costs but it's way better than the free version. Try Standard Linux Installer first if you like.
I'll try to provide that info. What you're seeing likely means where it's trying to write isn't allowed. Try changing the install location to somewhere safe like /data/kali or something. Also I just found out the S5 won't do ext2 so if you're trying to do a loop device use ext4 if possible. Sorry I don't have more info at the moment.
Just got running.
use a terminal emulator as root
cd /data/data/ru.meefik.linuxdeploy/linux/bin
rm sh chroot
ln -s /system/bin/mksh sh
ln -s /system/xbin/busybox chroot
make sure your file location is on your sd card
change image size to appropriate size.
also change to ext4 file system
use a terminal emulator as root
cd /data/data/ru.meefik.linuxdeploy/linux/bin
rm sh chroot
ln -s /system/bin/mksh sh
ln -s /system/xbin/busybox chroot
make sure your file location is on your sd card
change image size to appropriate size.
also change to ext4 file system
Also here are screen shots of my errors, settings, and anything else I figured might be useful to you. Thanks for help in advance.

I think it's long overdue for a Galaxy S4/5 guide. I know tinkering must be done and there are several issues to negotiate. I've found scattered info here and there but nothing definitive. Complete Linux Installer or Linux Deploy. Either/or. The only way I've ever got Linux to work is by installing to a directory and doing a chroot into it and doing a debootstrap.
Please&ty.

Hi there, I tried to install the kali distro in a s5 (g900f) with de Linux Deploy v 1.5.5 and I couldnt, i downloaded the 1.4 and neither but with de v 1.3 I could make it!
So if you are having any troubles with the installation, just download a previous version from the project's github (here)
Hope it helps!
